Flash Player < 14.0.0.180 (inferred) Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB14-21)

high Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 8382

Synopsis

The remote host is running a browser plugin that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

Versions of Adobe Flash Player prior or equal to 14.0.0.179 are outdated and thus unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - Unspecified memory corruption issues exist that allow arbitrary code execution (CVE-2014-0547, CVE-2014-0549, CVE-2014-0550, CVE-2014-0551, CVE-2014-0552, CVE-2014-0555).
 - An unspecified error exists that allows cross-origin policy violations (CVE-2014-0548).
 - A use-after-free error exists that allows arbitrary code execution (CVE-2014-0553).
 - An unspecified error exists that allows an unspecified security bypass (CVE-2014-0554).
 - Unspecified errors exist that allow memory leaks leading to easier defeat of memory address randomization (CVE-2014-0557).
 - Heap-based buffer overflow errors exist that allow arbitrary code execution (CVE-2014-0556, CVE-2014-0559).

Solution

Upgrade to 15.0.0.152 (or 11.2.202.406 for Linux users) or later. Chrome and Internet Explorer have integrated the Flash updates into their browsers, so ensure that the latest version of the browser is being used. Users who cannot update to 15.0 should update to 13.0.0.244.
